Amos Otis
Amos Joseph Otis
Batted: Right
Threw: Right
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 166 lbs.
Born: April 26, 1947 in Mobile, AL
Drafted: 5th round 1965 by the Boston Red Sox
Acquired: selected from the Red Sox in the Minor League Draft, November 1966
Departed: traded to the Kansas City Royals with Bob Johnson for Joe
Foy, December 1969
Amos played for the 1969 World Champions
for the first half of that season, but his fame came as an All-Star center
fielder for the Kansas City Royals for over a decade. In fact, if Amos had
posted the statistics with the Mets that he did with the Royals, he would have
been known as one of New York's all-time greats! He is pictured here on a 1971
Topps Tattoos panel, and below on a Topps Supers card from the same year, as
well as nine different O-Pee-Chee cards (and a few more).

This is a list of the cards of this player
that I had in my Mets collection before I transferred the ownership of said
collection to another diligent and capable Mets fan. The cards that are listed
in light gray print and struck through are cards that were sold for charity
prior to my divestiture. The cards listed in white text are the ones
that still remained until that final deal. Items listed in green I
kept out of the deal, just so I'd have something to display in my office and
den. At the bottom and listed in orange text are cards that I picked
up after the dealing was done, in order to maintain a certain continuity at
this site; that is, so I'd have a card to show you at the top of the page, and
maybe in the autographs and game-used areas. If an orange card is
struck through, it has also departed the collection. I’m still
accepting donations, should you feel so moved. Contact me by
following this link: NYMHall.
